Dear Amy, You rock the proud mom moment of the year!!!! Eli has gotten quite tall, and speedy since I saw him last. I will look at the calendar and hopefully we can get together this summ, my Selah - so far away now friend(LOL). -Love Nicole

Eli Jansen - The Star of the Blog!

My handsome little "Bug". Completely addicted to Despicable Me! Finally gave up listening to Elmo (hooray!) and now listens to his movie! Very opinionated about his music. (He comes by that honestly - my husband and I are both music lovers.) He's my: Bronco-riding, Chain-Loving, Pom-Pom shaking, Best-Shopping-Buddy-Ever, and makes me laugh every day!!

Amy - Wife, Mom, Blogger

8 years into this journey, and I'm amazed at the things that have happened in my life because of Eli. He is an inspiration to so many, and his smile can make anyone feel better, immediately. I never imagined that my son would be so awesome. I am blessed!
